It’s book fair week and our students are so excited to shop!
Your student can shop during the school day, or the family can stop in on Thursday night from 5-7pm.
Tomorrow is RED & GREEN day! We're having so much fun with the 12 Days of Reindeer Games!
A HUGE thank you to Michigan One Community Credit Union for your generous donations to Hillcrest and Pine Avenue Elementary Schools!
Check out these special morning announcements, recorded by 3 members of our student leadership council (with Mr. Kemler's support!) Awesome job and a big thanks to all who helped make this happen!

Have a fantastic weekend!
5th grade scholars are working hard during DI time in their classroom. During this time, students work on independent reading, completion of super sentences, getting instruction in small groups, and more!
Working on the first draft of Compare & Contrast papers involves brainstorming and developing ideas first. Students are using a variety of methods to get ready for authoring. So cool!
Join us for 12 Days of Reindeer Games starting December 6th!

It’s the last week to participate in Coins for a Cause! Don’t forget to have your students bring in spare change. All of the money raised goes to Gratiot County Hope House to support their homeless shelter. The classroom that raises the most will win a PIZZA PARTY! 🍕
We hope your families are staying warm and enjoying the winter weather! Bundle up and enjoy the time together! See everyone Monday!
